Just finished a new series I've been working on, thought I'd share the previews with you. Please please please, feedback would be great. I haven't done much imaging lately, I think I might be a little rusty.
OOH! Nice. I really like the top one. As a kid I used to love sitting in the back seat in the car when it rained, I could squint my eyes and make the most interesting images from the lights reflected in the water. Great job!
Let's see if I can remember my critiquing skills from college (graphic design student). Yes, my friend that was from before you were even BORN so I may be a tad rusty! LOL. It was hammered into us to not say what we like or dislike as much what works or didn't work and why.
I think the bottom one is the most powerful for me because of the red beam, with the strong angles against the negative space. The color combination also draws me in as well and the repeated angle with the red and yellow seems to create balance, or a solid base, that holds it together. It also keeps it interesting, for me. Am I talking out my a$$ or what? LOL. In short, the bottom one does it for me. I like it. (yeah, I said it! nanny-nanny, catch me now you grumpy ole college professor!)
The "We don't say what we like" philosphy came from a guy who believed that designing record jackets (yes, I said RECORD - see, showing my age again) was "beneath" a REAL designer and was akin to working at a fast food joint. idiot.
Yes, I'm in a "mood" this evening. The sinuses are clearing up and within a WEEK too! I'm very excited and I think the sudden return of oxygen has made me woozy! ~T.
I think I lied about doing my schoolwork, because I still haven't done it since I got off IM with you. Sigh.... All hail the lazy one.
Anyway, all three of these are lovely, but I think I like the last one best. It is very abstracted to me. My brain can force an image on the first two (much like the one Ame suggested), but the final one defies that. The colors are beautiful; I love angles, and now I know your last name! *grin*

Thanks! What's interesting is that I didn't care for the last one very much - I thought it was too simple. So yay!
And *acutally* you only know *part* of my last name! Hah!
